Commentary

Commentary on Matthew 9:28

Theological / Devotional

Come into the house. Though not so designated here, this may well have been the house of Peter. Use of the definite article implies that it was some certain house, probably that in which Jesus Himself resided while in Capernaum (see on Mark 1:29). Why Jesus did not heal the blind men in the street, is not mentioned.

Believe ye? Without the exercise of faith on their part Christ would not be able to exercise His power in their behalf. Man’s faith must rise to meet and to unite with the power of God in order that blessings, whether physical or spiritual, may be imparted and received (see Heb. 11:6).
